Adore and tremble, for our God

Hymnal: PDIL1766 #I.XLII (1766) Lyrics: 1 Adore and tremble, for our God Is a Consuming Fire; His jealous Eyes his Wrath inflame, And raise his Vengeance higher. 2 Almighty Vengeance, how it burns! How bright his Fury glows! Vast Magazines of Plagues and Storms, Lie treasur'd for his Foes. 3 Those Heaps of Wrath by slow Degrees, Are forc'd into a Flame, But kindled, oh! how fierce they blaze! And rend all Nature's Frame. 4 At his Approach the Mountains flee, And seek a wat'ry Grave; The frighted Sea makes Haste away, And shrinks up ev'ry Wave. 5 Through the wide Air, the weighty Rocks Are swift as Hail stones hurl'd; Who dares engage his fiery Rage, That shakes the solid World? 6 Yet, mighty God! thy Sov'reign Grace Sits Regent on the Throne, The Refuge of thy chosen Race, When Wrath comes rushing down. 7 Thy Hand shall on rebellious Kings A fiery Tempest pour, While we beneath thy shelt'ring Wings Thy just Revenge adore.

Awake, our Souls, away our Fears

How strong thine Arm is, mighty God!

Hymnal: PDIL1766 #I.XLIX (1766) Lyrics: 1 How strong thine Arm is, mighty God! Who would not fear thy Name; Jesus, how sweet thy Graces are! Who would not love the Lamb? 2 He has done more than Moses did, Our Prophet and our King; From Bonds of Hell he freed our Souls, And taught our Lips to sing. 3 In the Red Sea, by Moses Hand, Th' Egyptian Host was drown'd; But his own Blood hides all our Sins, And Guilt no more is found. 4 When through the Desert Isr'el went, With Manna they were fed: Our Lord invites us to his Flesh, And calls it living Bread. 5 Moses beheld the promis'd Land, Yet never reached the Place; But Christ shall bring his Followers Home, To see his Father's Face. 6 Then shall our Love and Joy be full, And feel a warmer Flame, And sweeter Voices tune the Song Of Moses and the Lamb.

When we are rais'd from deep Distress

Hymnal: PDIL1766 #I.LV (1766) Lyrics: 1 When we are rais'd from deep Distress, Our God deserves a Song; We take the Pattern of our Praise From Hezekiah's Tongue. 2 The Gates of the devouring Grave Are open'd wide in vain, If he that holds the Keys of Death Commands them fast again. 3 Pains of the Flesh are wont t' abuse Our Minds with slavish Fears; Our Days are past, and we shall lose The Remnant of our Years. 4 We chatter with a Swallow's Voice, Or like a Dove we mourn, With Bitterness instead of Joys, Afflicted and forlorn. 5 Jehovah speaks the healing Word, And no Disease withstands; Fevers and Plagues obey the Lord, And fly at his Commands. 6 If half the Strings of Life should break, He can our Frame restore; He casts our Sins behind his Back, And they are found no more.
